And things will be incredibly improved if flying schools ever stop being boys clubs, who grudgingly accept women but would really rather they'd quietly go away. No, I'm not exaggerating, and I know women pilots who'd put it more strongly than that. We don't usually, because it makes us unpopular, it's not done, and it usually gets us flamed or told we're over-sensitive. But it's still the case.. .. .But I'm off to the US in two weeks, and they tell me it's different over there. So I don't care!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />
